Juno...
 

Does anyone else think this movie sucked as much as Garden State?



...."OH MY BLOG"

ermm i feel sick

Its shite, well it was for me as i seemed to know exactly what was going to happen from the moment it started.
I am certain i seen a film with the exact same story line like 4-5 years ago..

Juno made baby jesus cry..

this movie sucked as much as garden state!

It had some pretty bad parts, but over all I liked it. Kind of unique and leaves you with a good feeling. :)

so does that mean i shouldn't waste my time rapidsharing it? lol

movie is weak

I thought it sucked, that girl was annoying as fuck, nobody fucking talks like that, and the guy acted EXACTLY the same as he did in Superbad.

you mean exactly the same way he acts in EVERYTHING?

The girl is pretty cute though.. and i need to comment on micheal cera.. i love him ahah but this movie sucked

Exactly as in Arrested Development too ...

Worst fucking film I have seen for a long time.

probably, but have only seen him in these two films :winkwink:

BUT Arrested Development was amazing..

Ya, Arrested Development kicked ass. Things are starting to sound positive on that movie too. I'm stoked...

I get a hard on just thinking about it :thumbsup

I couldn't even handle the trailer. Precocious pregnant teen was way too annoying for me.

But what kind of writing do you expect to get from a Stripping Journalist, or whatever she was going for?

And why did the Oscar committee bukkake all over that movie?

Oh man, the GF wanted to see this so we went. There were like 3 parts that made me laugh the rest put me to sleep. She loved it of course!

bump for juno sucking

I loved it to be quite honest. Ellen Page is a great actress. Check her out in Hard Candy.

Very very good movie imo.

I like Ellen Page but didn't find the movie to be very good. I thought it was supposed to be comedy but seemed anything but. Interesting side note, Ellen Page played Mr. Lahey's daughter in the first couple seasons of Trailer Park Boys.

Another terrible fucking movie. Someone needs to kill this bitch's acting career before she's costs me another couple hours of my life somewhere...

To each their own. All humans have different taste in entertainment. One cannot deny the talent it takes however to run with a virtual 2 hour monologue. It's much more than any of us can do. :thumbsup

Just do what I do with Ben Affleck...Avoid anything she is in, and you'll be fine.

SHE is in? :error

I liked the movie a lot

agreed ... but it is not the type that will have the " awsome dude " remark here ....

It is not a " Bro-Movie " ....

All you people who liked it.. please explan why

That's disgusting :(

No error...Re-read. I was speaking about Ellen Page. :upsidedow

ooh my bad. and hey she was in xmen that movie was awesome

1. It's based on a common situation in American culture, and it showed an alternate decision between abortion and being a drop-out, single mother.

2. I thought her sarcasm was snappy and her timing of delivery was perfect.

3. Her interaction with Bateman had a strange sexual tension throughout. The entire time, I had assumed that Juno and he would hook up and keep the baby with him, turning into his young lover.

4. The entire movie had an awkward tension in which it felt like everything could implode at any given second. Her interaction with Jennifer Garner was very interesting, as they were total opposites and I sensed total disgust radiating from her.

5. I personally have a sense of humor that caters towards the tongue in cheek stuff.

6. the movie is interesting if you enjoy seeing different combinations and the reactions to one another. Every person in that movie has a conflicting personality with one another, minus Bateman and Juno... The human interaction that occurred was genius.

etc. :2 cents:

that is ONE juno lost booyah

Hard Candy was practically unbearable, and I am a sincere fan of cinema.
That said, I enjoyed Juno. There were overplayed aspects and sterotypes, but I think they were intentional.

obviously intentional, but very annoying

I haven't watched Juno yet, though I was kind of interested in seeing it, so I can't make a judgement on it myself yet. But Hard Candy was just fucking awful. It was seriously ridicilous, and unbearable to watch for the most part.

blahh POS won best oringianl screenplay.. what about superbad people?!?!?

I liked it. I thought it was an adorable movie with really funny points (mom in the ultrasound room) and really sappy points (the tic-tacs in the mailbox)

But I'm a sucker for a chick flick

lol... what the heck

ok, i just watched it. not a terrible movie i guess. it had some real smart ass little comments and subtleties that made me laugh throughout it. not a real gutbuster or anything, but i don't think that's what it was all about. good girlfriend watching movie. was definitily subtantial times better than hard candy was...

Yeah, it was a date movie... not bad, but not oscar material imho.

:Oh crap:Oh crap

I liked it but then I liked Garden State too.

youre a girl so i guess you have en excuse

and yet I typically don't like 'girl' films..

one thing that i dont like about it is that its another remake from an asian movie...dont the writers have original stories to make? and yea...the acting sucked

sure it was, worse movies have won oscars in the past. it wasn't really my type of movie, and i can see it wasn't the type of movie many inthis thread were into, but it was a good story. the acting was fairly good, but moreover the story was really well done. it was a life story. shit like that does happen. 16 year old girls do get knocked up, shitstorms ensue, things don't always go as planned, but life goes on bla bla bla. just because i wasn't super in tune with story doesn't mena it wasn't a good one, and they did a good job of telling it.

so my opinion goes like this. was it a good movie? yes. was it a movie i was really excited for, and did the movie excite me any? not really. would i watch it again? not by myself for shits and giggles, no.

What is it a remake of? It won best original screenplay at the Oscar so I took that to mean it wasn't a remake.

Anyway, I don't think it was the best film ever or anything but I enjoyed it and I cried at the end. As far as the acting goes, I thought it was fine but I thought Jennifer Garner was better than the lead actress. Perhaps being a woman that is unable to have a child helps me 'get' her character but I thought she did very well with that role.
